English Courses

If you are looking to learn or improve
your English we at Papillon are here to help you!

We are able to offer courses for beginners,
improvers or advanced learners in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

Our courses include the following:

Little ones

For
youngsters from two to five years old (accompanied by a parent).

In small groups children will learn the
first sounds of English whilst having fun playing and singing. The basics
of the language will be learnt through nursery rhymes and songs.

Number games will also be used to familiarise
children to the first sounds of the language in the same way as if it
were their mother tongue.

Conversation with a cup of
English tea

For
adults, we offer a tea time conversation group. Come and drink tea with
us whilst learning or practising your English in a relaxed and informal
way. All levels of English will be catered for. If there are several
levels of proficiency in a group we will do our best to separate you
in order to better serve your individual needs.

Lessons designed to your
needs

We can offer bespoke learning on an individual
or group basis (maximum six people). Whether you need written or oral
work, reading or listening comprehension it does not matter. We will
design a course to meet all your needs. Whether you are a student or
business person we can guarantee a course adapted to your individual
requirements.

Family stays

Do
you have a child who is too young to cross the Channel alone or who
is nervous about travelling abroad?

Perhaps he/she doesn’t want to leave
home for too long for a language course?

We have the solution!

We can offer a weekend ‘en famille’
but here in France. We will welcome your child as if he/she was at home.
Games and conversation during their stay will all be completely in English.
We can arrange sight-seeing trips or more formal lessons if you wish,
all within a family friendly environment. Alternatively just a single
day ‘chez nous’ can also be arranged if a weekend seems
too long to begin with.

Children may come alone or in pairs. (Vanessa
has been CRB checked in connection with her work and as a Guide leader.
Tim was also CRB checked when he was a hockey coach).

Don’t hesitate to contact us if you
have other ideas or wishes. With thirty three years of teaching experience
in England, Vanessa will surely find a way to leave you wanting to further
progress your knowledge of the English language.
